Best Pubs for Food

Post by AustrianAndyGull »

Mattpuma gave me the idea from a comment on my matchday thread to come up with this. Which pubs / inns do you go to regularly to eat out and why? Which do you think are the best? It might be of help to me when i'm down there on holidays too so don't go putting any rough-holes down in a futile attempt to deceive me! :@

I was saying that i liked the Peter Tavy Inn near Tavistock as it sits on the edge of Dartmoor, is fairly quiet even when busy and is cosy and has some great local food and ales.

Up here in Derbyshire i'd recommend the Wheatsheaf in Baslow yards from the entrance to Chatsworth House. Cosy, warm and great food.
Strangely enough it was Pope Gregory the 9th inviting me for drinks aboard his steam yacht, the saucy sue currently wintering in montego bay with the England cricket team and the Balanese Goddess of plenty.

If you go in there Super it should be called the Keel Over!!

Anyone that's going Morecambe in a few weeks, avoid the Toby Carvery thingy on the Shrimp roundabout near the ground. It's cheap i grant you but it was awful. Tasted off.

Plus the glasses were that filthy i asked for another which came back filthy so i demanded a straw!!

GIVE ME A STRAW NOW DAMMIT!! I said. :@

:lol:

The Ostrich near Swaffham in Norfolk. The only redeeming feature for about 150 miles in any direction. Miles out of your reach (geographically and financially) Andy, but if you win the lottery and find yourself in the area, check it out.

McGuiness's Irish pub in Appleton
Homemade fish and chips, curry sauce and a cracking pint of Guinness ( shift a lot so always fresh) . .. And a game of cribbage
At the kerb halt - look right - look left -look right again - if all clear quick march!

I recommend the Reedham Ferry Inn in Reedham, Norfolk on the broads near Yarmouth. Lovely setting by the river and superb food at reasonable prices. If you're ever in the area then it's worth a visit for the Lowestoft Cod ( responsibly sourced i may add - don't normally buy Cod as i want to allow stocks to recover but i'm glad i did on thursday evening, a beautiful piece of fish ).

Don't go in the Rockingham Arms in Wentworth near Rotherham. Beautiful rustic pub but the food is appalling.

If you happen to be in Scarborough or on the way from there to Whitby then I can thoroughly recommend the Three Jolly Sailors in Burniston on the main drag. Lovely country pub with stone walls and a great ambience and great food. They also do Theakstons Black Bull Ale on draught!
